Transcript
00:00 Ito-san, the minimum level, Sugiura's was pretty sharp.
00:04 Yes, and we're both Muhae, so I'm expecting a high level match.
00:10 The first round has started.
00:16 The red glove, southpaw style, is here.
00:19 The blue glove, orthodox style, is Sugiura.
00:22 Ito-san, what are you paying attention to?
00:25 Well, I'm looking forward to seeing his techniques, because he's an amateur.
00:34 And his father, Ryo, is also a strong opponent.
00:38 Yes, he is.
00:39 He's going to switch to southpaw and attack.
00:45 Sugiura is going to use his legs to circle.
00:49 He's going to attack from the body.
00:51 It's a fierce fight.
00:53 Yes, I think Sugiura is going to attack, but Kitano also needs to stop him from doing so.
01:00 If he just stays back, he'll get carried away.
01:03 Ito-san, you were also a shining newbie in All Japan.
01:07 What is the most important thing in winning this tournament?
01:12 The match is short, and there are many matches.
01:17 But I want to show that I'm not going to lose my concentration.
01:20 This tournament is not over with just one match.
01:23 Yes, and even if he wins the top of the East Japan, All Japan is waiting for him.
01:27 Yes, it's been a month and a half.
01:30 They're going to fight each other in the body.
01:33 He's going to take the distance with his right leg.
01:37 He's good at this right hook.
01:39 He's going to attack southpaw style, and now he's back to orthodox style.
01:44 Sugiura.
01:45 Ito-san, how do you feel about the distance?
01:48 Kitano is doing it at an easy distance.
01:51 When Sugiura comes in, he sometimes does this in the ring.
01:57 He's not free to do that.
02:01 Kitano is not just going to stay back, he's going to come forward again.
02:05 Yes, that's going to be a desire.
02:08 Sugiura really wants to come out, but it's hard to do.
02:13 Kitano is trying to fight without aiming for KO.
02:21 But Sugiura is coming forward in the first round.
02:25 He's showing a good way to stop his feet and shoot.
02:28 45 seconds left.
02:31 Sugiura has been doing Kyokushin karate since he was in the third grade of elementary school to the first grade of high school.
02:36 He has a record of 3rd place in the All Japan Championship in junior high school.
02:40 Ito-san, you said that you were good at the backbone.
02:44 Yes, Kyokushin karate has a lot of striking.
02:49 I want to hit the opponent.
02:54 Certainly.
02:55 Kitano wants to hit the counter with a distance.
03:02 He's coming with a good position and a good head movement.
03:05 He's got a good combination.
03:12 He's got a good position and a good head movement.
03:14 Sugiura is coming forward.
03:16 The first round is over.
03:19 It's the fourth round of the mini-one.
03:25 The commentary on this match is provided by Masayuki Ito, the former WBO world super featherweight champion.
03:32 Ito-san, what was your impression of the first round?
03:35 I thought it was a very high-level match, just like the final of the New Japan Championship.
03:39 I have the impression that Kitano is doing well in the places where Sugiura wants to go out and hit.
03:47 And the southpaw style.
03:49 Originally, it was an orthodox style, but I saw a lot of scenes where Sugiura was in the southpaw.
03:54 I think he's doing a good job of switching.
03:58 There are some places where he can catch it, but Kitano is doing a good job of hitting it.
04:04 Sugiura is also hitting a good timing punch.
04:08 I was listening to the story of both trainers in the seventh round.
04:12 Kitano, red glove.
04:16 Sugiura is wearing a blue glove.
04:19 Kitano is a true undefeated.
04:21 Kitano won 7,007 wins in amateur and 3,003 wins in professional.
04:24 Sugiura won 4,004 wins in professional.
04:28 Sugiura is the one who is going to go straight to the left.
04:32 If Kitano looks too much, Sugiura will come in because he has a punch.
04:38 It's better not to look too much.
04:41 Ito-san, do you want to take your hand out of yourself while aiming for a counter?
04:45 I think the front hand is good.
04:48 I'm going to take it out and hit it where I hit it.
04:51 If you look too much, Sugiura will come in because he has a punch.
04:57 It's better not to look too much.
04:59 It's here.
05:00 It's close.
05:01 When his hand stops, he comes in.
05:05 Sugiura is full of energy before the right body fight.
05:10 Kitano's face is cool.
05:18 It's a close fight.
05:26 Ito-san, the left straight is also a weapon of Kitano.
05:30 That's right.
05:31 The body is good.
05:33 It's a little down.
05:34 Right hook.
05:35 He's going to get a punch.
05:38 Will he close the corner?
05:39 Kitano raises the guard high.
05:42 Ito-san, you have to fight at a close distance.
05:56 Kitano has a good distance.
06:03 He's pushing.
06:12 He has power.
06:13 Right hook.
06:15 Kitano has raised his physical strength.
06:22 He's going to hit the left straight.
06:26 Right hook.
06:27 Kitano.
06:29 He hit a heavy jab.
06:32 He released the right hook from the left straight.
06:35 Red glove.
06:38 Sugiura, Ito-san, are you thinking of going to the south pole?
06:42 That's right.
06:43 I can switch while walking.
06:47 I'm doing it for a living.
06:49 There are a lot of lefties now.
06:52 This was also a strategy.
06:54 The south pole is harder to get a straight.
07:05 He's also thinking about the risk of being hit.
07:07 That's right.
07:08 He hit the left straight.
07:10 Kitano.
07:11 He's going to get in.
07:12 Left straight.
07:13 He got his face.
07:14 He's a little counter.
07:16 With this, round 2 is now over!
07:20 This is Takero Kitano, and this is Yoshi Sugiyura in the blue corner.
07:27 Well, this round, Ito-san showed that Kitano can do it even if it's close.
07:36 He showed it before.
07:37 Yes.
07:38 Sugiyura, what do you think will be needed?
07:43 Well, even if it's close, you can't lose.
07:47 I think that's the stage for Sugiyura.
07:52 Yes.
07:53 If Kitano comes forward, he'll be able to get points.
07:59 But if he loses, there won't be many chances for Sugiyura to win.
08:06 So he'll have to win the match.
08:09 Yes.
08:10 Sugiyura said that the match is his own stage.
08:15 He said that it's fun to fight before the match.
08:20 He said that he can't get enough of the thrill of getting punched.
08:26 Sugiyura is going to start the close match.
08:31 He's going to return the left straight.
08:32 Kitano.
08:34 Ito-san, is Kitano at risk at this point?
08:37 Yes, they're just fighting in a close match.
08:41 Yes.
08:42 They're both strong.
08:45 Yes.
08:45 In the same gym, there are Naoya Inoue and Takuma.
08:51 Kitano.
08:52 Naoya Inoue experienced a mass spur.
08:57 The gym is full of real fighters.
09:04 Yes.
09:05 There are four fighters from Ohashi Gym.
09:10 That's amazing.
09:10 Yes.

09:25 He said that his friends in Wakayama are cheering for him.
09:28 He said that he wants to show that he's doing his best.
09:31 He's going to fight with all his heart.
09:35 Ito-san, they're fighting at zero distance.
09:38 Yes.
09:39 Kitano is good.
09:40 He didn't get a clean hit.
09:45 Sugiyura needs to be stronger.
09:49 He's only getting close to 100% of the punches.
09:55 He needs to mix feints and strong punches with light punches.
10:02 Does that affect his stamina?
10:07 Yes. He's fighting with his feelings.
10:10 But his punches are short.
10:14 He's getting read and countered.
10:17 He needs to be stronger.

10:54 Yes. This is my first time.
10:58 This is my first time in a tournament.
11:01 I feel like I'm only going to experience this in the final.

11:13 He's raising his guard and is going forward.
11:16 The third round is over.
11:18 The minimum round is four rounds.
